About Tedeschi Family Winery

The Tedeschi Family Winery is a small, family-owned winery producing less than 1000 cases a year in the style of the "old-world."  Their flagship wine is made from the estate's dry farmed, single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.   Emil Tedeschi's grandparents settled in Calistoga in 1919, emigrating from Pisa, Italy.  His father, Eugene acquired the property that currently houses the winery and family home in 1951. It's here that he planted the family's first grapevines among established fruit trees.  In 1991, Emil returned as steward after building one of Hawaii's most successful wineries: Tedeschi Winery - Maui.    Today, the Calistoga winery is  the passion and single focus of Emil's two son's Emilio and Mario along with a very interested daughter, Elaine.  "Making wines our grandparents would be proud of is what we are aiming for.  Traditionally made, old-world wines that can be enjoyed with a variety of foods, good company and from one's wine cellar for many years." Says Mario Tedeschi, Winemaker.

Together, with Emilio acting as General Manager and Mario making the wine, they have sought out and committed to handcrafting old-world style wines from the estate Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard along with several small and neighboring vineyards to produce Merlot, Pinot Noir, Petite Sirah, Primitivo, Chardonnay, Viognier, Rosé of Pinot Noir and a Late Harvest wine of Sauvignon Blanc.   All of the vineyards are specially selected and hand-tended.
